Chapter 190
“I originally thought that Michael would return to the country quietly and be dealt with without anyone knowing, saving the young couple the trouble. But unexpectedly, Michael found Sophie first. Now that their marriage is solid and they know to handle things together, I’ll just stay out of it.”
Albert glanced back and saw Jessica and Chris coming out of the bathroom. Jessica even wiped some water from her hand onto Chris’s face.
Compared to before when they always came back separately, they now looked much more suited to each other.
Linda’s judgment had always been good, out of all the people in the world, the son–in- law she chose was definitely much better than someone like Michael. Albert had initially wanted to help out, but now it seemed unnecessary.
“Since we don’t need to get involved, then you won’t have to worry so much, Mrs. Wilder. You just need to enjoy life. With Miss Jessica and Mr. Green around, the good days for you are still ahead.”
Linda stood up and went upstairs.
In a single room on the second floor, her husband’s memorial tablet was placed.
Albert handed some flowers respectfully to Linda, standing behind her. She took the flowers, looked at the tablet, and muttered a few words.
“Jessica has grown up, but Sophie is still young. We have mostly spoiled that daughter, which caused her to be unable to distinguish right from wrong, and she doesn’t respect Chris much as her brother–in–law. In the past, to cooperate with Jessica’s act, we turned a blind eye. Now, it’s time to solve this problem.”
Linda sighed and placed the flowers in front of the memorial tablet.
“You, on the other hand, have it east. You don’t have to manage anything and just left me alone here to watch over the family. Don’t you feel sorry for me at all?”
Seeing Linda’s sadness, Albert quickly said, “Mr. Wilder always cared for you, Mrs Wilder. When he was alive, he would never let you be upset.”
The culprits were those from the Hall family.
Since the accident happened to Mr. Wilder, Albert had set a firm goal to find the killer.

He hadn’t expected it would take so many years and that Jessica would already have
grown up.
“You’re getting old too.” Linda still stood in the empty room. “Your son and daughter said they want to bring you to live with them in retirement. What do you think?”
Albert shook his head. “When I helped you and Mr. Wilder start the business, I said I’d stay with the Wilder family my whole life. I’m not dead yet. There are still things I can do. No matter how reliable Miss Jessica and Mr. Green are, there are some things they can’t handle.”
Linda glanced at Albert, clearly understanding what was on his mind.
In terms of ruthlessness, Jessica was no match for Linda.
